Re: [HACKERS] where to write small reusable functions ?
Hi,
char *
pg_strcat (char *dest,char *src)
{
/* pg_realloc is a safer function than realloc */
dest=pg_realloc(dest,strlen(dest)+strlen(src)+1);
strcat(dest,src);
return dest;
}
Postgres already has something for the above functionality.
See makeStringInfo, appendStringInfo.
Regards,
Nikhils

We don't have a central location for those small reusable snippets of code ? The main point of these functions is to catch errors and exit the program. But that behavior is very program-dependent, so I don't think it'd be useful to put them in a central location. -- Peter Eisentraut http://developer.postgresql.org/~petere/ ---(end of broadcast)--- TIP 2: Don't 'kill -9' the postmaster
